Our vision is that every person can be a creator. That every Xbox One can be used for development. That every game and experience can take advantage of all of the features of Xbox One and Xbox LIVE. This means self-publishing.

Doing the same thing as all your competitors only after consumers and developers bitch endlessly about your policies is so visionary!

I am getting so pissed at Microsoft for all these turnarounds. Not because they're bad for the industry, I think they're awesome for the industry. But it garners more support for Microsoft who have now shown not only are they willing to try and screw over their customers as much as they're allowed, but also that they're incredibly disingenuous.

I think at this point Microsoft really should just give up and call the fucker the XBox One-Eighty (or perhaps the Xboneatetee).

I like the "analysts" who keep saying that MS is listening to their consumers and adjusting their policies based on feedback...cuz you know, all the negative backlash and complaints and condemning reviews had nothing to do with their sudden changes.

I've said the same thing elsewhere, Ygg. Basically, those who didn't want the original XBone are already looking forward to the PS4/made up their minds. The people who were actually looking forward to some of the XBone features are now upset with Microsoft too.

So they've gotten a few more people to eventually own both consoles, and that's about it.
